Much of our data is imported from client sources and now we have to export it and the receiver of the data objects to these characters. I know I have written one before myself. For now we can use such a function in the programs that create the exports, but ideally I would like to put it at the source. Unfortunately that means a lot of programs to change. I have not worked with R:Base triggers very much, just Oracle. Would it be possible to add a function to "clean" the data of unprintable characters as part of and ON UPDATE OR ON INSERT trigger.
